I'm on a DT, and doing a fundraiser!

My first exciting bit of news is I'm on the Scrapping Outback Design Team! This has been one of my favorite online forum//stores for a long time. The best bit is they specialize in chipboard, which is one of my favorite things to play with. The DT are very talented, so I feel rather honored to be part of the team.

I received this gorgeous Mini-kit to play with which you can purchase here (& it's 10% off at present), and I've done a tutorial on how I altered the chipboard and how to make the flowers. Here's a sneak peak.

If your looking for some inspiration check out the White with a Twist challenge, Sketch Challenge, or check out the Products and Techniques section for lots of "How To's". As an added bonus all entries into the Scrapping Outback challenges win $2 (Scrapping Outback dollars) to use in their online store.

My next super-cool bit of news is I had a layout picked up for publication in Scrapbooking Memories Magazine (just a little bit excited!).

And for those of you living in South East Queensland, I am helping organise a scrapbooking day fundraiser for "chicks in pink". Through the Mater Foundation, "chicks in pink" offer support services for breast cancer patients. I lost both my Mum and my aunt to breast cancer so this is a cause very close to my heart.
